Work in progress

I'm working on creating another textile piece. This is the beginning of an original painting on monks cloth. I'm thinking of adding a stuffed bird to her shoulder, sort of 3-d. Then a fabric backing of some sort and perhaps some polyfil.

It's a fabulosa day!

It's raining bucketfuls here in Seattle today! I can't remember when it's rained so hard. Monsoon rain! So,,, I have been busy adding little textile quilts to my etsy site today. All three of them will be there very shortly. Let me know if you are interested in any of them, and I will reserve them for you.

Stay dry little pumpkin feet!

Rug Hooked Heart

My new bunny slippers

My new slippers

Kitty likes the whiskers on my Bunny Slippers

It's a face off!

If you have followed my blog long enough or have followed my work for some time, you will know that I have a love for bunny slippers. It must have been something from my childhood. I don't really recall owning some myself but always wanted a pair. Well now I have some, thanks to the gals at Run Away Rabbit. They are the best ever!! Just like the ones from my childhood. Gala and Laura contacted me last year after a posting I did of some of my "Sister's in Bunny Slippers", to let me know about their wonderful slippers. My only regret was that I took so long to order a pair!

Gustavo is having a birthday!

Well, at least his blog is. I made this for his blog birthday! Check it out here. You can see all the other fabulous entries in his side bar off to the right.

I like you but...

Submission for Pocketful

Here is my submission for the next Pocketful Illustration Book. The theme is "All that is solid melts into air". You can see the other issues of Pocketful on my sidebar and links to Amazon. Yea! I previously painted lots of houses, this inspired me to paint some more, so off I go to the studio.

I'm having a sale!!!

Heeellloooo!
I'm having a sale in my etsy shop!! Everything is marked down to $35.00, unless of course they were less than $35.00 to begin with. My sale startes today and will be for a week. I need to clear out my shop so I can start with some fresh new art. My prices will go back to their original price a week from today.
Yea!

Making progress

I am making progress on my sketchbook for the Sketchbook Project. I am happy with the way it is turning out (I wasn't at first). Maybe it had something to do with the fact I will never see it again. It will however, travel all across the US for many to enjoy. I like that part. A piece of me traveling all over, perhaps to places I have never been or seen, mysterious places unknown.
See that little tree horned guy up in the upper right? I made him for
Gustavo Aimar's 3 x 3 project. He looked so cute, I attached him by staple to the page. More on that a little later.
